Here in the Commonwealth of Virginia you theoretically
only have to go
to the DMV when first obtaining a Drivers License or when first
registering a vehicle. Almost everything else can be done over the
internet or at strategically placed ATM like machines. In fact, I was
able to get on the net yesterday, update my current address, and have
new Drivers License and vehicle registration cards (with the new
address) mailed to me. Normal delivery time is under 5 days by US
Snail.
It really is a convenient service and actually makes
the lines a lot
shorter for the rare occasions when you do have to be physically
present.
No Way. Service is the key here. I don't want to learn how
to fill out the right form, or in which sequence I have to
press a button, just to learn afterwards, if I had done it
different I would have saved a lot of money.
Nanana, I want a human beeing, which does realy give me the
needed service to perform the required task.
